Awesome family getaway

Three families (12 in total) stayed over the school hplidays. Such a great space for all of us, plenty of games for the kids, the three bathrooms are a great help with a large group, warm with the fire and heat pumps. Lots to explore in the local region. Checkin and out process was super easy and great comms from the hosts. We had a fabulous stay, thanks very much!
